The record

Three horns across four tracks -- Miles Davis on trumpet, Sonny Rollins on tenor, Jackie McLean on alto -- with Walter Bishop, Jr. at the piano, Tommy Potter on bass and Art Blakey on drums. An early Prestige ten-inch, PRLP 124, with Ira Gitler's notes on the back. That frontline is the whole reason to chase a copy.
